Action Key or Command Result
Access the
next history
command.
Down cursor key ↓
or Ctrl+N
Display the next history command if there is a
later history command.
Otherwise, the command is cleared and the alarm
bell rings.
On the HyperTerminal of Windows 9X, cursor key ↑ is invalid. Because the HyperTerminals of
Windows 9X define the keys differently. In this case, you can replace the cursor key ↑ with Ctrl+P.
When you use the history command, note the following:
z
The saved history commands are the same as that those input by users. For example, if
the user inputs an incomplete command, the saved command also is incomplete.
z
If the user runs the same command for several times, the earliest command is saved. If
the command is input in different forms, they are considered as different commands.
z
For example, if the display ip routing-table command is run for several times, only one
history command is saved. If the disp ip routing command and the display ip
routing-table command are run, two history commands are saved.
3.4 Shortcut Keys
3.4.1 Classifying Shortcut Keys
The shortcut keys in the system are classified into the following types:
z
User-oriented and user-defined shortcut keys: CTRL_G, CTRL_L, and CTRL_O. The
user can correlate these shortcut keys with any commands. When the shortcut keys are
pressed, the system automatically runs the corresponding command. For the details of
defining the shortcut keys, see Defining Shortcut Keys.
z
System-defined shortcut keys: These shortcut keys with fixed functions are defined by
the system. Table 3-7 lists the system-defined shortcut keys.
Different terminal software defines these keys differently. Therefore, the shortcut keys on the terminal
may be different from those listed in this section.
